Pop Culture Celtic Deities

The Horn & Cauldron

Welcome to the Horn and Cauldron podcast…

What exactly is the Celtic pantheon? It’s a mish-mash of several different western European deities, that often get lumped into one camp. And unfairly so—there’s enough information, history, and lore for each region to have their very own deep dive! In fact, you may be surprised to know that they weren’t all natively worshipped in the same region.

In this episode, we discuss the various regional deities that make up what is commonly thought of as a Celtic pantheon. Where they come from, what they’re worshipped for, their appearance, and a brief list of correspondences. We go over the most popular deities attributed to the Celtic pantheon: The Dagda, Lugh, Brigid, Cernunnos, the Morrigan, and many more.
